Frequently asked questions
Where do I find the Hodi connector in Claude and ChatGPT?
Claude: Settings › Connectors › Browse connectors › Hodi › Connect.
ChatGPT: the Hodi connector is not in the ChatGPT directory yet. Add it by its address: Settings › Apps and connectors › Advanced › Developer mode › Create, then paste https://hodi.host/mcp.
Other assistants (Cursor…): add https://hodi.host/mcp as an MCP server.
If you are not signed in to Hodi, your assistant asks you at that point.
What about digital sovereignty?
Let's be clear: Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor are American services, and so is GitHub. What you type in the conversation goes through their servers.
But the AI only acts. Your live site, your databases, your email and your Odoo instances stay hosted at Hodi, in your data center in Africa. Passwords never go through the conversation, and the AI never sees the values of your environment variables.
Our advice: do not paste personal or confidential data into the chat. And if you want to go further, the connector works with any MCP-compatible assistant, including an open-source model you host yourself.
Do I need to know how to code?
No, but you need four basic notions. Your AI handles the rest and explains every step.
- Hosting: the server your site lives on.
- Database: where your site stores its information (accounts, orders, content).
- GitHub: the service that stores your site's code. A free account is enough: create a GitHub account.
- Hodifly: the Hodi tool that publishes your GitHub code to your hosting. Discover Hodifly.
Which assistants does it work with?
With Claude, straight from its connector directory. With ChatGPT and any MCP-compatible assistant, the open standard that links AI to online services: just add https://hodi.host/mcp.
- Code editors: Cursor, VS Code with GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, Zed, Cline.
- Command line: Claude Code, Gemini CLI.
- Other assistants: Le Chat by Mistral, the European AI.
- Your own AI: an in-house agent or an open-source model you host can connect too, as long as it speaks MCP.
How can I be sure I won't break anything?
The connector is built so that nothing is irreversible.
- Nothing is deleted: your AI never deletes a site, a database or a mailbox. It only replaces the DNS records you ask it to change.
- Nothing is bought: it never orders, renews or pays.
- You choose the access: start read-only to explore, switch to changes when you are ready.
- You approve: your assistant can ask you to approve each action before it runs.
- One-click rollback: Hodifly goes back to the previous version of your site. For Odoo, test on a staging copy first.
- Everything is logged: every action goes into your account's activity log, and you can remove access whenever you want.
